Drone

Wow, if the Russians need two advanced tactical jet fighters to knock down a propeller driven drone, I guess we ain't doing to bad.

If the Russians recover the downed bird, I sure hope that drone doesn't have a self destruct capability. Headline would be
" Russians loose $750 million cruiser when recovered drone explodes after recovery"

That link is to info on the sinking of the Moskva, the Russians' powerful cruiser that 'dominated' the Black Sea. That's the ship that demanded the Ukrainian forces on Snake Island surrender, and was told to 'F' off. The Ukrainians hit it with 2 anti ship missiles.

Yes sir, intentionally so proposing this might be a second such loss.
